Pick Sk's starters (Week 13)

week 3
The Steelkings are 2 and 0. Carson palmer tossed three touchdown passes and set up a short Willy parker touchdown on a draw play. Larry Tynes provided the Kings with 11 . 3 field goals and 2 extra points. The Steelkings eakked
out a win 26 -20 over Dawns guns Last week even though the majority of the Gridiron brain trust were wrong when selecting the Steelking running backs. The majority put down Lamont(B.D.) Jordan in favor of Corey Dillon. Big Dummy scored on Sunday nite as Dillon was stuffed at Carolina.
 
  Its week 3 and you get anouther chance.
 
Remember: These guys have to fall across the goal line to get points.
 
Fast Willy Parker    VS N.E
Corey Dillon    @ Pitt
Lamont (Big Dummy) Jordan  @ Philly

Parker, Jordan, Dillon.
 
Parker - Run first D, Staley and Bettis still have problems, Pats can be had against the run.
 
Jordan - Both teams have their problems here, but it looks like rain.  RBs may benefit.
 
Dillon - The Steelers don't allow rushing TDs at home.

Not me, number one.  Number two, it was not a unanimous majority.  I know I wasn't the only one dissuading you from Jordan.  No reason to go lumpin', bro.  In any event, you're not going to encourage people to chime in when you ask for input if you're going to beat them up and play after the fact.

As for recommendations, because this is a TD-only league, I ditto Callie...  She's...

i was of no help last week, but here is another try.
 
Fast Willy Parker    VS N.E  
Corey Dillon    @ Pitt  
Lamont (Big Dummy) Jordan  @ Philly  
 
all have tough games, but parker has best shot.  i don't like either of the other matchups but would go with dillon.  raiders will be playing catch up all game and jordan may not get too many looks.  i think i had same picks last week....maybe i was one week off.
 
good luck!

That's not what I ment to do. In fact, 100% of the gridiron faithful chose Parker! The gridironers were perfect on week 1 as well. Thats even when Parker was a mystery.
As far as beating people up after the fact, I dont know what you mean. Fantasy football is scored after the fact. As Rodney Dangerfield once said. "I'm a lover, not a fighter." But while you are standing in the center of the ring:
 
 
 
Quote:
I would go with Parker, for sure.  But, comparing KC's and Carolina's run defenses based on last week, and considering the HUGE hit Carolina took on defense with the loss of DT Jenkins, how good Dillon looked on Thursday night, and how "eh" Jordan looked (granted it was against the Patriots in New England), I would go with Dillon over Jordan.  Dillon is approaching "never bench" stud status.

The landscape has changed. Your Steelkings are 4 and 1 while leading the division by a game. Its rivalry week and I play my Best Bud's team who trails the mighty Steelkings by a game. He sports LT as his feature back. This means I must squeeze every drop out of my backs.

 
 
 
Remember: Scoring only..They must trip and fall over the goal line to get me points. I can start up to 2 RB's.
 
Corey Dillon      @ Denver
 
Tatem Bell     VS New England
 
Lamont Jordan  VS San Diego
 
Willy Parker   VS Jacksonville

Dillon - Tough match-up, and he's hurt.  Dillon could get yards & Pass could score, again.  But NE can do things at the goal line.  Tough call.
 
Bell - NE D is hurt, but Denver could go to the pass against that secondary.  And who gets the rock on a Shanny team?  Still, Bell could be the big play guy like last week.
 
Jordan - Tough SD run D.  Tough game for Jordan, but he should be involved in the passing game.  It's the SD secondary that is vulnerable, and you can't know if Jordan will somehow get a chance for a passing TD.
 
Parker - Bettis should get the TDs, but the Jags are soft against the run.
 
Sounds like you need to figure out which start is the worst and drop that.  I guess I would go without Jordan, because the SD secondary is way worse than the run D.  The Raiders should call out the Air Force this week.  (Keep in mind, I've said that before and was wrong.)

Callie has done a fantastic job of summarizing things.  No need to further elaborate each guy's sitch.  In the end, I think Tatum Bell is the best choice of the lot as having the best chance to extend a football over the goal-line.  Good luck!

Way to go Gridiron!

 
I sent Dillon to the bench, Traded Parker and Kennison for Jimmy Smith.
 
And with your advice
Started Bell and Jordan. 18 Points
 
 
The Steelkings posted a 32-27 win to move to 5 and 1
       
 
Now if I can just convince the bronks to get rid of the TD vulture in Anderson. All will be right with the world.

You've had so much fun picking my runningbacks that I thought before you get tired of that, I'd give you a shot at my recievers.
I DIGRESS...
    With the bye weeks there is only 2 RB's actually playing on the Steelkings roster. I cant screw that up.

 
THIS WEEKS CHOICES FOR THE 5-1 STEELKINGS
 
Reggie Wayne  @ Houston   (no brainer)
 
And one other
 
Tony Gonzalez KC   @ Miami
Lavern Coles  NYJ @ ATL
 
I have roster space for a free agent. This would have to be someone fairly obscure as attrition has taken its toll on the market. Remember the czar's rule in my league. Thine mustif Fallist across thy Goal Line to prevail.
 
Oh ya!
Tynes @ Miami or Keading @ Philly ?

VERY close calls...
 
I would lean toward Coles over Gonzo a) for the upswing you get by playing a WR instead of a TE and Vinny can get the ball to him downfield and b) due to Gonzo's poor showing thus far this season.  At PK, I'd go with Tynes... in a coin flip.
 
Good luck, dude!

Kaeding @ Philly.  It is close, but I would go with him.
 
I concur that Gonzo has not been too impressive and Coles has a much bigger up side.  Go with Coles.

I like Tynes and Coles. PK is actually a toss up, but SD is scoring TD's like gang busters   so I don't see Kaeding getting many FG oportunities!! Gonzo has to break out at some point, but I would wait until he does before I start him.

I like all your players chances to score this week, but of the 4....... I'd go with what Barnaby said. I do have a feeling though that T Gonz may score twice this week!! That is just a hunch mind you!!

For the sole purpose of scoring touchdowns,... I'd go with J. Smith and Gonzalez.  I think to put Wayne in is to rely too much on Indianapolis's "breaking the curse" and having success against the Patriots in New England.  I say go with the two VERY due guys, Smith and Gonzo.  Good luck!

YOU CAN SEE EM BELOW. SCORING ONLY.  
 
1 QB
1 Or 2 RB's
2 or 3 Wide outs
1 k
 
No more than 6 total starters.
 
I like Runningbacks. Will Dillon play? Greg Jones?  Is fred Taylor back? Jordan is a sure starter.  Should I start 3 WR's ?  HELP!
 
I must name my starters before game time Thursday.

Palmer..Jordan..
 
I actually like Greg Jones IF he is SURE STARTER...Arizona is extremely shaky against the run and allows tds on the ground.
 
For your 2 wideouts I like Gonzalez for sure against NE secondary. Since its scoring only, I like Moss as your second.
 
IF greg can't go i'd probably play Smith over Wayne.
